<v Speaker 2>How do you like that? Well? You two? I mean,

49
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:36.680
<v Speaker 2>you mentioned Lee green Wood, you mentioned Tony Orlando, you

50
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 2>mentioned two of the greatest patriotic songs that we've had

51
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.400
<v Speaker 2>in how many years, eight hundred years or something.

52
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, a long time, Lucy, when you analyze it,

53
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 1>really urban Berlin, God bless you know, Goderica. So that's

54
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:54.479
<v Speaker 1>a hundred years ago.

55
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Now wait a minute, woo woah, wooh, whoo are you serious?

56
00:02:58.719 --> 00:02:59.680
<v Speaker 2>One hundred years?

57
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:02.919
<v Speaker 1>Let's go back, if you go back to nineteen twenties,

58
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:03.639
<v Speaker 1>what would that be?

59
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.439
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Hey, I'm still figuring out what three

60
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:13.039
<v Speaker 2>and three years? You know. Let me go on hundred years.

61
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>One when you and I first met. Yeah, that's sixty

62
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:18.560
<v Speaker 1>five years ago.

63
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Wow. Is that amazing? Yeah? You just don't think of music,

64
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:26.680
<v Speaker 2>say Irving, Berlin or any kind of recorded music being

65
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:28.800
<v Speaker 2>one hundred years old. Wow, is it?

66
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Boy?

67
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you it's going fast. Huh ooh these years

68
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:32.840
<v Speaker 2>ago fast?

69
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:36.280
<v Speaker 1>You know when Lee wrote that, little did we know,

70
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:38.520
<v Speaker 1>both of us, that we would be part of something

71
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>very special for the country, Because no one has I

72
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:46.120
<v Speaker 1>don't think ever inspired a country more than Lee's God

73
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Blessed the USA, and certainly Larry Brown and Earl Levian

74
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>who wrote Yellow Ribbon to Welcome Home. Not only are

75
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:57.479
<v Speaker 1>Iranian hostages in nineteen forty seven years ago, but also

76
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.879
<v Speaker 1>our bodubs a Vietnam voting allow us at every military

77
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:07.039
<v Speaker 1>soldier since then. So really, these these guys, Lee Greenwood,

78
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.599
<v Speaker 1>Arba Lebene, Larry Brown, they really did write two of

79
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:13.800
<v Speaker 1>the greatest I think patriotic songs in the last hundred years.

80
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Did you when you first heard the Yellow Ribbon? Did

81
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:19.360
<v Speaker 2>you know that there was something going along there? Did

82
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 2>you have a feeling, because you know you have a

83
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 2>very sensitive character, all right, did you know that there

84
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:28.079
<v Speaker 2>was something special about that tune? That song? No no

85
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:28.959
<v Speaker 2>I did did not.

86
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 1>No. As a matter of fact, I didn't think it

87
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:37.160
<v Speaker 1>would be a hit because I think I said, I

88
00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:40.000
<v Speaker 1>just come off knock three times. They think that's a

89
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:43.480
<v Speaker 1>novelty song. Now it's tying of a ribbon around the tree.

90
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:46.839
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see it. I really didn't see it until

91
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.160
<v Speaker 1>just before about to cut the album. I couldn't stop

92
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:53.360
<v Speaker 1>singing the chorus. Well, tie, you couldn't stop. So I

93
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.879
<v Speaker 1>called Hank Medras, the producer, and I said, listen, if

94
00:04:56.920 --> 00:05:00.680
<v Speaker 1>you we record this, would you mind making sure that

95
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Telma of Dawn and Joys of Dawn Records Solos I

96
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>just don't want them to be background singers. And that

97
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:10.600
<v Speaker 1>was a bargaining ship for me to have these sing solos.

98
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:12.920
<v Speaker 1>That's what that was to me. But God had a

99
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:15.959
<v Speaker 1>plan for me, like always, for something else. That became

100
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:21.120
<v Speaker 1>a signature hit for me, certainly a homecoming song for

101
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 1>our military and those who have been kidnapped.

102
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:27.079
<v Speaker 2>That's a great story. You always have you, You know,

103
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:30.959
<v Speaker 2>your your life is like a story book, but it's real.

<v Speaker 2>my friends. Oh, we've been blessed having you in our lives.

<v Speaker 2>Tony, honey? How many people does ever have Tony Orlando

116
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:20.000
<v Speaker 2>singing your personal life birthday message? My birthday's in October. No, no,

<v Speaker 2>don't start now later, okay, Tony, what's happening tonight on

118
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 2>the on the program well, you know, we.

119
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Both realized that. Of course in the sixties the British invasion,

120
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:37.600
<v Speaker 1>but we were What we forgot is that there was

121
00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 1>another invasion. It was girl power. If you analyze the sixties,

122
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:47.519
<v Speaker 1>you will see everyone from the Cherelle's to the Ramets

123
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:52.079
<v Speaker 1>to the Sweet Inspirations. They dominated the charts even during

124
00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:55.920
<v Speaker 1>the British invasion. So tonight it's girl power. And as

125
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.399
<v Speaker 1>my guest I have is Stelle Brown, who is one

126
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:02.079
<v Speaker 1>of the Sweet Inspirations who had that different inspiration and

127
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:05.439
<v Speaker 1>also did all the backgrounds and all singing with Elvis

128
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>all those years.

129
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.519
<v Speaker 2>That's gonna be fun. I love the girl groups, you know.

130
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:13.759
<v Speaker 2>It's every time I say girl groups, I almost hesitate

131
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.480
<v Speaker 2>because I don't know if Jodie's going to be set

132
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:20.240
<v Speaker 2>by saying, you know, the women, the ladies that like

133
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:22.879
<v Speaker 2>the word girls some of them. But they but we

134
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:25.120
<v Speaker 2>we don't mean anything by that, right, I mean, there's

135
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:27.800
<v Speaker 2>nothing negative. It was what we call them. They were

136
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 2>girl groups and they were what girls they were? Oh boy,

137
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:33.439
<v Speaker 2>were they something.

138
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:38.959
<v Speaker 1>Had Runnetts. You had the Angels, remember that?

139
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh sure, sure, yeah sure.

169
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:00.559
<v Speaker 2>coming up on the eleventh and Chippreos. Maybe they'll let

170
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:02.840
<v Speaker 2>me eat this time. I don't know that John doesn't

171
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:06.320
<v Speaker 2>do him feed me something. He always thinks keeping me hungry.

172
00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:08.559
<v Speaker 2>But I had a hot dog once there, and Jody

173
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 2>loves the food. Everybody raves about the steak and steak there,

174
00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:16.960
<v Speaker 2>and John certainly feeds himself well and Margo and everything.

175
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:20.559
<v Speaker 2>But they sort of forget because and give me a

176
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:23.480
<v Speaker 2>hot dog. But you know something not a bad thing,

177
00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:28.399
<v Speaker 2>because if you feel hungry, you know, if you do

178
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.879
<v Speaker 2>a better job. I swear if you go into a show,

179
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.279
<v Speaker 2>Let's take this really, If you go and do a show,

180
00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:36.799
<v Speaker 2>and you can ask Tony or anybody who's a performer,

181
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 2>and you are full, not the way to do a show.

182
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:42.799
<v Speaker 2>You want to go in there feeling, you know, a

183
00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.639
<v Speaker 2>little hungry, which is good, ladies and gentlemen. I'm looking
